Just an FYI in case anyone was interested: if you're printing something potentially clandestine, be careful about where you print it.@vkc Alternate solution, maybe: get 3 printers, print a bunch of tiny yellow dots randomly on two of them, then the actual document on the third.
Assuming the printers put the data in the same place every time, that should corrupt it, I'd imagine.
